Continuing the March for Peace
Thursday, April 07, 2005
I visited a peaceful march in London, recently. Nearly 100,000 people gathered along Hyde Park. They came from communities throughout the London metropolitan area. Peace coalitions within neighborhoods expressed pride in their neighborhoods and also celebrated their unity for peace. Protests against the war in Iraq continue, as well as apprehension that the Bush administration may be preparing to attack other nations. A great number of children participated in the peace march, including one cherub, on this same day throughout the world. People gathered hopefully, expressing their belief in human rights and in the inevitability of peace. People around the world are willing to gather for peace, to speak for peace, to march for peace. Let us continue to join our brothers and sisters throughout the world. Let us continue to gather, to march, to strive for peace.
